Hansen presents a deep, longitudinal portrait of the politics and social formation of the Japanese American community before, during, and after World War II. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e To begin, Hansen presents two essays, the first centering on his work with Ronald Larson in the mid-1970s on the history of \u003ci\u003eDoho\u003c\/i\u003e, a Japanese and English dual-language newspaper, and the second an article with David Hacker on revisionist ethnic perspectives of the Manzanar \"riot.\" A second section is composed of five oral history interviews of selected camp personalities-a female Nisei journalist, a male Nisei historical documentarian, a male Kibei Communist block manager, the Caucasian wife and comrade of the block manager, and the male Kibei who was the central figure in the Manzanar Riot\/Revolt-that offer powerful insight into the controversial content of the two essays that precede them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Manzanar can be understood only by being considered within the much wider context of Japanese American community formation and contestation before, during, and after World War II. A varied collection of scholarly articles and interviews, \u003ci\u003eManzanar Mosaic\u003c\/i\u003e engages diverse voices and considers multiple perspectives to illuminate aspects of the Japanese American community, the ethnic press, the Manzanar concentration camp, and the movement for redress and reparations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arthur A.
